People ask me what my farts smell like, or if they can eat cereal out of my chest cavity (I have light Pectus Exavatum). I actually have a song about them in my comedy show, where the lyrics are strictly from my DMs. I’d also want to ask her why she just ghosted out of nowhere!ĪNDERSON: I get really strange DMs. I can’t remember her name (Caroline?) but she seemed pretty cool. Like she would make her toes look like french fries or make “loafer” shoes out of challah bread. INTERVIEW: If you could spend the day with one IG influencer, who would it be?ĪNDERSON: There was a fun IG influencer that just up and left a few years ago out of the blue… she would make really dumb food collabs with her body. Really the only time I’ve been caught in an incriminating situation like that. I was so quick about it and said I needed to get male nudes so I could use them to trade for female nudes later, which made sense to everyone else. One day in class a girl, Leanne, asked EVERYONE why I was in a Men4Men chat room (you could publicly see what chats people were in if you hovered over their screen name, which I didn’t realize). These exchanges would start in chat rooms and then move to 1:1 messages. INTERVIEW: Describe your most incriminating accidental email/text.ĪNDERSON: When I was in sixth grade it was common for everyone to “trade” nudes on AOL chat rooms, basically swapping pics of other people to get other pics, knowing that none of us were actually the people in the photos. INTERVIEW: Where do you spend the most time online? Chanel was incredible in this year’s Eurovision! It’s like “Fuego” all over again. INTERVIEW: What is THE song of Pride 2022?ĪNDERSON: “SloMo” is the gay pride song of the summer, the one with the dance break in it. She has these sketches that sometimes go well over a minute that she delivers in this deadpan style. INTERVIEW: An account everyone should follow?ĪNDERSON: There’s a TikTok account and I swear she’s the funniest. You just put a pic of your dick or your butt. INTERVIEW: What’s a GAY website everyone should know about?ĪNDERSON: Since you capitalized GAY, I would say -it’s NSFW just so people know-but it’s a cruising website. But only specifically that song.ĪNDERSON: CLOUT always clout. Like somehow TikTok sends me every single Elphaba that ever sang “The Wizard and I”.
INTERVIEW: What does your TikTok For You page look like?ĪNDERSON: It’s gays and lesbians and then very niche musical theater stuff. INTERVIEW: What was your AIM screen name?ĪNDERSON: My first was Hunk圓, I thought hunky meant hot and chunky. INTERVIEW: How many unread text messages do you have?ĪNDERSON: 335 unread texts, It used to be over 400 but I’ve gotten them down. Describe your private browsing persona in 3 words. Also when someone owns a house I sometimes do the Zillow stalk out of curiosity. Like, “Oh I know those nipples… oh that’s his self-identified ‘tribe’…” It’s like you’re looking where you shouldn’t.
INTERVIEW: What’s your stalking platform of choice?ĪNDERSON: Instagram stories for regular moments, but when you connect a familiar body on Grindr it’s always a treasure to read those profiles. The Jon Benet Ramsey actually being Katy Perry was a good one too. The “Lea Michelle can’t read” one is a favorite. Ones where the creators know it isn’t actually true, but try to make as many connections as they can. INTERVIEW: What’s your favorite YouTube rabbit hole?ĪNDERSON: I love really specific pop culture conspiracy theories. They feel like a crunchy sorority passed down.
One where the words have all slowly been replaced with different words in different fonts and the original text isn’t even visible anymore. INTERVIEW: What was your favorite subject in school?ĪNDERSON: I loved ceramics in high school (can you tell I’m ?).ĪNDERSON: I love really trashy, deep-fried memes. INTERVIEW: What’s the first thing you do when you wake up? ROB ANDERSON: 34/M/Los Angeles (I haven’t been asked that in forever).ĪNDERSON: Venti iced coffee black easy ice, which makes me sound like I have a problem when I actually type that out.
